Incentives to patch the game?

[Sombre]

Why don't you just hit 'n' for next commander?

[Sensori]

As for incentives to patch the game, at least five new nations have been added, a lot of new magic sites, events, icons for abilities that didn't have icons before, bug fixes obviously, balance fixes and so on and so on.

And yes, the only update you need is the latest one.

Just the major crash bugs fixed between 3.00 and 3.06 are worth it, never mind the additional nations and other stuff. For a list of what has been fixed just since 3.04, see the shortlist thread at the top of the forum. For the earlier fixes, see the patch download page changelog or the progress page.

My favorite setup is 400 province 4 computers opponent. I go for epic wars. The crash, I am so used to them, that I crash less often. (doing alt-tab only after save game for instance)

The generations of turns had crash me a couple of days ago. I had to reload from my last save (I always save at end of turn ) to regenerate 4 times to continue the game.

I would love to have more magic items and spells to have more choices. On that regard, my feeling is, that only a couple of items are worth forging every time. If we can hove some items that can be equivalent to all those SC items, it could be better for equipping some diversity on SC. Same for spells... key spells are always scripts. But they are always the same along the path of research I find.

I can surely change that pretty easy, using another races. But I cannot go away from Pangaea. They are the first nation on 10 different test game I have done, that I had feel good about it.

I believe 'n' looks through anyone on "defend", "hide" or "siege".

I do wish there was a way to tell it, yes I'm leaving this scout on hide, don't come back to him this turn. Paging through the scouts trying to make sure I didn't miss anyone I wanted to move gets old fast. Minor nit pick though

It autosaves your turn whenever you hit e

[jimkehn]

You can also hit F1 and it will bring up all your commanders and a host of information about your nation.

All of this is in the manual of course...

Pretty cool, I will try it tonight. I hope that the next commander function will only take the commander in Defense stance. Cause, a commander in research or in patrol or in construction don't appeal me for the used I want of it. (but could have use on search magic site stance)

'n' only cycles through commanders without orders (in defense or hide stance) and for some reason commanders that are maintaining a siege.
